Ink on Pink.
It is not easy to take ink spots
out of -colored goods without af
fecting, the color. Try this on a
small piece of the goods before
attempting to use it on a gar
ment. Pink and blue chambray
have been cleaned successfully of
ink marks in the following nay:
"Hold the inked spots firmly over a
cup; wetting the spot well with
milk and letting it run 'through
the goods. Then rub tlio- juice of
a lemon into the cloth with the
end of the finger. The alternate
milk and lemon juice application
removes the ink spot and should
leave the color intact.
If ink spots are rubbed on both
sides of the material with butter,
left untouched overnight, and
then washed in the usual way, no
.trace of them will remain when
the article is dry.
Acid Stains.
Spots produced by hydrochloric
or sulphuric acid can be removed
by the application of concentrated
ammonia.

furniture, dip a cloth in hot , ' fer
nearly at boiling point. Pi -o
over spot, remove quickly and'
rub the spot with a dry cloth. Re-""

cohol or camphor, quickly ap- -plied,
may be used.
